RP-117 titanium king pin ball for sharper MS1.0 steering

The Yokomo RP-117 titanium king pin ball is engineered for use with the MS1.0 chassis to deliver a measurable steering upgrade. Made from lightweight titanium, it trims weight at the steering pivot to help the car react with more immediacy. The ball's height is raised by 1mm over standard kit parts, which gives tuners an extra option when adjusting roll centre and front grip.

Performance oriented geometry tweaks

By reducing weight and increasing the roll centre, the RP-117 can produce better traction and steadier handling through corners. This makes it a handy part for drivers refining their setup for tighter lines and more repeatable lap times.

Installation notes and chassis fit

This component is compatible with the MSR-010 chassis and fits into standard steering assemblies without modification. It is straightforward to install during routine setup work or when performing an upgrade swap.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Does the RP-117 affect front roll centre significantly?

The 1mm increase shifts the roll centre enough to notice on grip and turn-in, but it is a subtle change that pairs well with other small setup tweaks.

Which tracks benefit most from this upgrade?

Technical tracks with frequent direction changes and tight corners will show the clearest benefits from improved front bite and steadier steering response.

Will fitting the RP-117 require different ball cups?

No special ball cups are normally needed if you are installing it on the intended MS1.0 or MSR-010 steering setup, but confirm clearances before final assembly.
